  • Jan. 6 anniversary: Ohioans call for unity on divisive day
    Mary Schuermann Kuhlman

    As Americans mark the first anniversary of one of the country's most divisive days, some Ohioans are gathering in unity.


    In an attempt to stop the certification of the 2020 presidential election, supporters of former President Donald Trump stormed the U.S. Capitol on Jan. 6, 2021. More than 140 police officers suffered injuries.

    Richard Asimus, activist and organizer of the Jan. 6 Remembrance in Cincinnati, said it was a sad day.

    "I wanted to cry," Asimus recounted. "Is this what our country is coming to? Our citizens attacking our Capitol and the process and the police?"

    Mindy Hedges, a volunteer for a candlelight vigil scheduled for the statehouse in Columbus, noted the vigil is nonpartisan.

    "It is not about parties," Hedges emphasized. "It is about our freedom, it is about our democracy, it is about us as Americans."

    Rioters caused an estimated $1.5 million in damages to the Capitol building and grounds. More than 725 people have been arrested for their involvement so far, including 38 from Ohio.

    Today's vigils will honor the police officers and National Guard troops who defended the Capitol, and Asimus is hopeful participants will be inspired to consider how they can help defend democracy.

    "Rather than just be angry or be reactive, go deeper," Asimus urged. "Feel the meaning, honor those that were heroes in this event on the 6th. Then from that, carry that out and contribute to making society better."

    Some events are also drawing attention to federal voting-rights legislation, which Hedges contended is needed to protect attacks on democracy. She cites House Bill 327 in Ohio as an example.

    "It bars returning our ballots via drop boxes. It bans mail-in voting without an excuse. So you need a doctor's excuse if you want to mail in your votes," Hedges outlined. "How horrendous is that? And costly, by the way?"

    Supporters said the measure is needed to eliminate voting fraud.

    Support for this reporting was provided by The Carnegie Corporation of New York.

  • Tips for attaining New Year's Resolutions for 2022
    Eric Tegethoff

    It is time for a new calendar and, for many people, it also means resolutions to change their lifestyles.


    It can be a big task for people who have committed to new year's resolutions to stick to them.

    Darren Bushee, mental-health clinician and field care coordinator for Optum Idaho, has some tips. He said changing your lifestyle is difficult, and it is best to consider your mindset going into the shift.

    "You can think of it not just as a resolution but as an evolution," Bushee suggested. "Lifestyle changes are a process that take time like an evolution and requires support. So once you're ready to make that change, the difficult part is committing and following through."

    Bushee pointed out people can get caught up in goals they have not attained in the past, but advised people not to be too down on themselves.

    Bushee noted one of the keys to attaining a goal is to break it down into manageable steps.

    "Your plan is, in essence, a map that will guide you on this journey," Bushee explained. "One of the things you want to do is be specific. You want to exercise more? Detail the time of day. Write everything down and ask yourself if you're confident these activities and goals are realistic for you."

    Bushee also recommended people attempt to change one behavior at a time.

    "Unhealthy behaviors develop over a course of time," Bushee observed. "Replacing unhealthy behaviors with healthy ones requires more time obviously, right? So many people run into problems when they try to change too much too fast."

    He added people should make the resolutions public. He urged telling a friend, asking for support from them, and accepting help from them when they offer.
